Cheesy Chicken Alfredo Recipe

Make this delicious cheesy chicken alfredo meal for dinner or lunch! You can use shredded or chunks of chicken depending on your preference.

Ingredients:

3/4 box Cellentani Noodles, cooked al dente

1 1/3 cup heavy cream

4 tbsp. butter

1 onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1.5 cups Parmesan cheese

1/2 tsp pepper flake (optional)

1/2 cup mozzarella cheese

1 cup of shredded chicken (leftover roasted, or poached)

A handful of panko breadcrumbs

Directions:

Preheat the oven to low broil (Broiling instead of baking for an extended time is what keeps this pasta so creamy) and cook pasta a couple minutes shy of package directions.

Melt butter in a saucepan and cook onions until soft and translucent, add garlic and cook 1 minute more.

Next add the whipping cream and parmesan and cook for 5 – 10 minutes until sauce begins to thicken. Stir in mozzarella cheese, pepper flake, chicken, and pasta. If mixture seems a bit thick add a couple of tablespoons of heavy cream. Season generously.

Place in a 10 inch dish and top with some extra parmesan and breadcrumbs. Bake until top has begun to brown.
